FreeBSD ports which are currently marked deprecated

As part of an ongoing effort to reduce the number of problems in the
FreeBSD ports system, we periodically schedule removal of ports
that have been judged to have outlived their usefulness.  Often,
this is due to a better alternative having become available and/or
the cessation of development on the existing port.  In some cases,
ports are marked deprecated because they fail to build and install
correctly from their sources, or otherwise fail in operation.

The ports, and the reason and date that they have been scheduled
for deletion, are listed below.  If no one has stepped forward
before that time to propose a way to fix the problems, the ports
will be deleted.

The goal of this posting is to make this process much more visible
to the wider FreeBSD community.
